Huo Yuan said, "Auntie, before this matter is resolved, you and your family shall temporarily reside here. Please, make yourselves at home, and if there are any inconveniences, feel free to discuss them with the housekeeper, Mr. Qian!"
Having said this, he glanced at the people kneeling and continued with a polished, yet authoritative tone: "If any servant dares to disrespect Auntie's family while you reside in the manor, they shall not go unpunished!"
Huo Yuan was generally lenient with his servants and rarely spoke in such a severe tone, thus, after his command, they all responded loudly: "We will follow the young master's instructions and ensure we respect Madam and her family."
Seeing everyone still kneeling, Lady Du hurriedly said: "Please, everyone, get up. There's no need for such fuss. We have a manor near the royal hunting ground, we could stay there."
